Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to water-dilutable coating compositions which contain a binder, an aluminum pigment and an aqueous diluent. The water-dilutable coating compositions according to the invention are distinguished in that they contain, as the aluminum pigment, a pigment which has been obtained by passivating a lubricant-containing aluminum pigment in an aqueous passivating solution which contains chromic acid and a water-soluble glycol ether of the general formula R 1 --(--O--CHR 2 --CH 2 --) n --OH (R 1 represents a lower alkyl radical, R 2 represents either an H atom or a lower alkyl radical, preferably a --CH 3 group, and n represents a number from 1 to 5) and/or a water-soluble glycol of the general formula HO--(CHR 3 --CH 2 --O--) n H (R 3 represents either an H atom or a lower alkyl radical, preferably a --CH 3 group, and n represents a number from 1 to 5), at not less than 50° C., preferably 60° to 90° C., particularly preferably about 80° C.
